Asia´s Design Talents Will Get the Glass Trophy from LASVIT

Published 19 Feb 2019

LASVIT is a proud supplier of the Design Anthology Awards, which recognize regional talents, outstanding product designs, and exceptional places. Overall 21 awards will be given across the three categories, shining a light on deserving talents in a way that continues the work of the magazine. The winners will be announced at a gala dinner at the Murray Hotel in Hong Kong on the evening of 22 February 2019. One of the prizes will be presented by the president and founder of LASVIT Leon Jakimič.

LASVIT created the square-shaped glass trophies for winners. The trophy is inspired by the architecture of the beginning of the 20th century.

“The trophies showcase optical play of lights and shadows. The design should remind the facade or interior layout of a building. The trophy consists of geometric curves that copy the entire block of glass. Some geometric surfaces are in a matte finish, resulting in the effect of perspective and space,” says LASVIT designer Monika Kořínková.

Each trophy, which fits on the palm of a hand, is made of clear glass with a glossy finish. In the center of the glass square is the visually striking d/a logo. LASVIT employed many techniques such as sandblasting, metal coating and engraving in the production of the trophies.
